Abstract:
Objective To evaluate the preoperative sleep quality of inpatients and analyze its influencing factors.Methods A self-designed questionnaire,Pittsburgh sleep quality index(PSQI)and self-rating anxiety scale(SAS)were used to investigate the sleep quality and anxiety of 114 inpatients before operation.The two groups were compared in terms of sleep quality and anxiety.The factors influencing the sleep quality were analyzed.Results Of the 114 preoperative inpatients,72.81%(83 cases)had poor sleep quality.The PSQI scores of preoperative inpatients were significantly higher than that in the healthy individuals,but significantly lower than that in the patients with insomnia(P<0.01).The main factors affecting the quality of sleep were fear of surgery,pain and discomfort,feeling strange with the ward settings,and worry about prognosis,totally causing 89.47%of the sleep disorders. Inpatients with poor sleep quality,37.3%was found suffering from anxiety.The rate was significantly higher than that of patients with good sleep quality(P<0.01).Conclusions The incidence of poor sleep quality is relatively high among the preoperative inpatients, mainly caused by fear of surgery,pain and discomfort.In order to improve the sleep quality,it is necessary to perform psychological and comfort intervention according to the sleep status of the patients.
